Page Six Farmers' Day Is Held In Zebulon Yesterday Farmers’ Day in Zebulon was an event worth remembering.

A full list of prize winers and participants in all the day’s events will be published in the Record next week, together with the text of Mr. Coolpy’s talk.

Farm Home Hints Linens should be ironed on the wrong side to prevent shine. If a high gloss is desired on your dam ask cloths, iron first on the wrong side, then on the right. Your lin ens should not be starched as they have a tendency to remain firm and crisp, but a very light starch ing is advisable for your cotton or rayon demask cloths. Starch is removed from iron either with a‘soft damp cloth and non-abrasive cleaner or with fine steel wool which can be purchased in any hardware store. Home eco nomists recommend No. 00. How should rayon be ironed so it won’t get that shiny look? Rayons should be rolled in a turk ish towel to eliminate excess mois ture; then hang them on a hanger until dry enough to iron. Iron on the wrong side with a moderate iron. —Ruth Current. Pleasant Hill News Mrs. J. A. Whitaker of this sec tion died Saturday afternoon, Oct. 2, 1948, after several days illness.
